I know this has nothing to to with beauty but i don't care.I have just watched the latest Dr Who episode, whilst curled up on the sofa with a blanket. I looooove Dr Who and think David Tennant is the best Dr yet. I just don't think anyone will come close. He manages to express so much through his eyes, especially sadness. This particular episode was darker than normal - which i liked.It was also extremely sad. I mean heart breakingly sad, as we see him falling apart at the end of the episode. David's last appearance as the Dr will be sometime over Christmas (i think) and rumour has it that Rose,Martha, Donna, Sarah Jane & Captain Jack will be joining David on his last adventure, i hope it's true! I just wish he wasn't leaving. The thing that really sets him apart (this is just my opinion) is how he can switch from comedy to drama in a split second. Thats really hard to do. I
Well i'll leave it there for now.
Take care guys

I'm being brainwashed byThe X Factor!
Well i have been feeling ill and fed up all day. I really wanted to do some make up videos but my neck and face is still swollen so that was a no-go.
Anyway, as usual i settled down to watch The X Factor. Now i have a love/hate relationship with this show. I often spend the entire show moaning to my husband (who is soooooo not interested) yet i still watch it! Tonight was 'rock night' and i cant say i was impressed by any of them in particular (what the heck was Cheryl wearing?)
Then at the very end, John & Edward came on.
This is where the brainwashing happens, because i do think they should never have got through to the finals.However, i kinda look forward to seeing what they are going to come up with (at least they go for it, instead of just walking up and down or just standing there) Tonight they looked like extras from the teenage version of The Matrix, with some very dodgy eyeliner on. They sung a Queen song 'We Will Rock You'. Now i'm not a huge Queen fan, but even i thought this was not a good song choice. They sang some bits out of tune, missed out some of the words. So why oh why did i enjoy it? The only conclusion i can come up with is The X Factor has found a way to mess with my mind (as if it's not messed up enough already) So i will no doubt be watching the result show tomorrow, screaming at the tv if they get through again. Then next Saturday i will sit there glued to the tv saying - oh John and Edward were quite good tonight.....and the cycle will continue..........

Feeling Blue
I am feeling very fed up and sorry for myself as i write this. I went to the doctors and dentist yesterday, to find the cause of my swollen neck and face.Turns out i have an infected tooth, which is causing the swelling (not to mention the agony when i try and swallow) so am on antibiotics and have to go back next Friday. I have to say my dentist is a lovely lady who is very understanding about my panic attacks and fear of dentists.
Anyway, i really want to do some videos for my youtube channel but am a bit self consious of the swelling.There's one video in particular i want to do.It's a contest celebrating getting 1000 subscribers yay!!!!!!. It's not a huge contest as i have bought everything myself and will be paying for the shipping (which could be very expensive as it will be an international contest)) but the prizes are nice. I am hoping to add another couple of bits but that depends on money.
I have re-launched the Migi Nail Art contest on youtube. The rules are less restrictive, so you don't have to own a migi nail art pen to enter now. So if any lovely people want to enter here is the link.

Ow, that hurts
I am in absolute agony at the minute. Why? Because the other day a chunk came out of my tooth!!! It had been playing up for a few days, but as i am petrified of dentists, i was hoping it would sort itself out. BIG MISTAKE!!! Now it is extremly painful when i swallow as my glands have swollen. Am hoping to get an appointment asap. Hubby has just gone to pick up some strong painkillers, then it's off to the factory shop and maybe Boots to cheer myself up with some goodies. Before i go, one quick question Are you afraid of dentists?
